Levi’s Relic

ABOUT LEVI’S RELIC

With support provided by Onondaga County, Redhouse is thrilled to be workshopping an original play with songs for elementary-aged children, with supplemental resources/activities for students, that teaches about Opioid Abuse in a developmentally appropriate way.

We are launching our pilot tour for free all over Onondaga County starting in January, 2024 and running through May, 2024. As part of the tour, educators and families will also be provided a list of resources for anyone they may know who may be struggling on where to receive assistance (in collaboration with the Drug Prevention Network).

LEVI’S RELIC SYNOPSIS
When a fairy named Levi crushes his wing trying to help his friends, he loses his ability to control the wind and fly. Determined to get his powers back, he embarks on a journey in search of a quick fix. Instead, it puts everything he loves in grave danger. This powerful story teaches children the dangers of looking to substances to feel whole, and how to help your family and friends get help if they are struggling – by believing in your community and believing in yourself.

“Too often in this community and across the country, enrichment opportunities, arts education, is very dependent on the neighborhood and the school district that a child attends…The Redhouse looks to even out the playing field…Before I was an administrator I was a physics teacher. And of course how can you be a physics teacher and not have Albert Einstein as one of your idols. So here is what even Einstein said about the arts. ‘I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited, imagination encircles the world.’ Thank you Redhouse for the support of the children around Central New York…so that we can continue to give all children irrespective of zip code opportunities to experience the arts.”
